Whats the address for the MOTOR store?
I know the MOTO store is in Aoyama, which i've been to before down a small alley.
Yes, the MOTO store is down a small alley, well-guarded by a cheetah.
Im loving the desert boots and engineer boots. Def interested in getting a pair when im in Tokyo in October.. if i can wait that long
Those are two excellent choices.
Both shops definitely prefer that you come in and actually try on the shoes, but I know they have hesitantly done international orders in the past.
Hesitantly?
Yes, hesitantly. That was my feeling from the conversation I had the with the elder Motoike brother the other day. How about "leery"? They seemed leery of doing international orders. They mentioned that they receive many inquiries from abroad about shoes and boots, but it seemed like they were leery of doing an order, if the customer had not been to the store to try the shoes on.
That said, I have no idea how they go about deciding whether to do an order or not. And I have no idea how many international orders they do, or don't do.
What has been your experience?
I wasn't aware of them doing international orders. A while ago I informed them about interest in their shoes and boots on superfuture and asked about international orders. They said that because of the sizing, the don't want to send shoes to people who can't/haven't tried them on because they want to ensure that customers are satisfied. Given the lack of returns in Japan, it's fair that they don't want people to be unhappy after shelling out so much.
